Abstract

We present the Software Quality Assessment and Visualization Toolset (SQuAVisiT), a flexible tool for visual software analytics. Visual software analytics supports analytical reasoning about software systems facilitated by interactive visual interfaces. In particular, SQuAVisiT assists software developers, maintainers and assessors in performing quality assurance and maintenance tasks. Flexibility of SQuAVisiT allows for integration of multiple programming languages and variety of analysis and visualization tools.SQuAVisiT has been successfully applied in a number of case studies, ranging from hundreds to thousands KLOC, from homogeneous to heterogeneous systems.
